MODEL 1099-31 RECEIVER
WARNING:
•Disconnect power before any installation or repair.
•Wear safety glasses.
Your Multi-Code Radio Controls are designed
specifically for the remote control of industrial
door or gate openers and to give years of
dependable service without adjustment.
SELECTING A CODE
The code is determined by the positions of the 10
small switches numbered 1 through 10 located on
the receiver board. To gain access to the switch,
remove the top section of the case. Any combina-
tion of ON (CLOSED) or OFF (OPEN) positions
can be selected by using a small screwdriver or
ball point pen (see figure 1). We strongly urge that
you avoid the following code schemes: ALL ON,
ALL OFF, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ON or 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ON.
These codes are frequently used by other manu-
facturers, and create the possibility of false opera-
tion, and may be less secure than other code
schemes.
Be certain to check that the code is functional
before completing the installation.
INSTALLATION
The receiver comes equipped with an F-connector
receptacle and an antenna with an F-connector
plug. The antenna can be plugged directly into the
receptacle, or it can be moved away from a metal
structure, or to an outside location for better
receiver performance by using a coaxial kit avail-
able from your dealer.
Begin your installation of the 1099 by correctly
wiring the receiver to the devices you will be
using. WE URGE YOU TO BECOME FA-
MILIAR WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS
THAT THE MANUFACTURER OF YOUR
EQUIPMENT HAS PROVIDED. SINCE,
IN MANY CASES, THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WILL DETERMINE THE WAY IN WHICH
THE 1099 RECEIVER WILL BE IN-
STALLED.
The receiver should be mounted near the opener
power head and can be installed in any position by
using screws and the two slots in the cover flanges.
Select a location and position that permits access
to the terminals and space for the antenna as clear
of metal structures as possible and preferably in a
vertical position.
Wire the red and black wires to a 24VAC/DC
power supply. Connect the remaining gray wires
as specified by the manufacturer of your operator.
If such instructions do not exist, wire the two
gray wires in parallel with the pushbutton termi-
nals. If the operator has a three wire terminal, the
proper terminals will usually be marked “1” and
“2” or “24V” and “RELAY” (see figure 2).
At this point you should mount your 1099 receiver
to its permanent installation, if you have not al-
ready done so.
ANTENNA INSTALLATION
After you have mounted your receiver, test it with
the enclosed antenna for range, noting the cover-
age that you get from all desired operating loca-
tions. If greater range or coverage pattern is
necessary, you may need the 1066 Coaxial Wiring
Kit, which is available from your dealer. It is not
advisable to add lengths of coaxial cable greater
than 20 feet, as this may affect range or tuning.
ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
Linear Corporation has taken every possible pre-
caution to make the 1099 receiver as reliable as
possible. We think the following notes should be
observed:
1. Be sure the unit is sealed from moisture, and, if at all
possible, keep it away from direct moisture.
2. In those installations where vibration may be a factor,
be sure to use a fastening compound, such as LOCTITE
(TM) on the mounting screws to insure reliable
mounting.
3. If this, or any other equipment is being used in a
safety-related device, be sure to test the entire system at
the time of installation, and at frequent intervals, to
determine that it is working properly.
OPERATIONAL CHECK
To check operation, move back a reasonable dis-
tance (about 50 feet) and press the transmitter
button. Operation should be reliable at this dis-
tance but environment and location of both the
transmitter and receiver will affect the range. If
the transmitter is stowed well out of sight, it may
be necessary to remove it from its mounting and
hold near the windshield. Try different locations
and positions. If operation is still unsatisfactory,
check the following:
1. The antenna must be connected to the receiver for
normal use.
2. If the opener fails to operate, check to see that 115 VAC
power is present. Check circuit breakers or for a system
power failure.
3. If the opener operates by pressing the wall button, but
not when the transmitter button is pressed, the radio
controls are probably at fault. Check to make sure
both transmitter and receiver code switches are set
to the exact same code since a difference of just one
switch will prevent operation. Check transmitter bat-
tery, location of the transmitter and receiver installation.
4. Try mounting the antenna at a more favorable remote
location by utilizing the coaxial kit.
If, after performing the above operational check,
it is necessary to return the radio controls, return
both the transmitter and receiver to your dealer
for repair or replacement or they may be returned,
postage prepaid, directly to Linear Corporation.
